Published 28/02/2025, 12:04

LONDON - Investec (LON:INVP) PLC and Investec Limited, operating under a dual listed company structure, have disclosed their quarterly capital and liquidity figures as of December 31, 2024. The data, calculated using the Basel III framework, shows Investec maintaining stable capital adequacy and leverage ratios across its various groups.

Investec PLC, which includes Investec Bank PLC, reported a Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) ratio of 12.3%, a Tier 1 ratio of 14.1%, and a total capital ratio of 17.9%. Its leverage ratio stood at 9.6%. These figures exclude quarterly profits and associated foreseeable charges and dividends for the period from October 1 to December 31, 2024, as these are yet to be verified by an external audit, in line with Prudential (LON:PRU) Regulation Authority rules.

Investec Limited and Investec Bank Limited Group (IBL), which are primarily on the advanced approach for credit and market risk, presented stronger capital ratios. Investec Limited’s CET1 ratio was 14.8%, with a Tier 1 ratio of 16.2% and a total capital ratio of 19.1%. The leverage ratio was reported at 6.3%. IBL Group reported a CET1 ratio of 16.9%, a Tier 1 ratio of 18.4%, and a total capital ratio of 21.4%, with a leverage ratio of 6.9%. Both Investec Limited and IBL’s capital information includes unappropriated profits, which if excluded, would result in slightly lower capital and leverage ratios.

In terms of liquidity, Investec PLC showed a robust Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR) of 460% and a Net Stable Funding Ratio (NSFR) of 148%. For IBL, on a solo basis, the LCR was 182% and the NSFR was 126%. The IBL Group reported an LCR of 187% and an NSFR of 127%.

These liquidity metrics are designed to ensure that banks have sufficient high-quality liquid assets to survive significant stress scenarios and maintain a stable funding profile in relation to their assets and off-balance sheet activities.

The detailed capital and liquidity disclosures for Investec PLC, Investec Limited, and IBL are available on the Investec website in the quarterly Pillar 3 disclosure reports, as required by relevant regulations. This information is based on a press release statement provided by RNS, the news service of the London Stock Exchange (LON:LSEG).
